main na hone se hua yani baDi taqsir ki
maiñ na hone se huā ya.anī baḌī taqsīr kī
kīmiyā-gar ne mirī miTī magar iksīr kī
un dinoñ aayā thā tū jab hausla darkār thā
ḳhair ho terī ki tū ne tīrgī tanvīr kī
aur sochā aur sochā aur sochā aur phir
us ḳhudā-e-lam-yazal ne aur hī taqdīr kī
āshiqāñ suniye ba-gosh-e-hosh merī dāstāñ
dāstāñ kuchh bhī nahīñ yāroñ ne bas tash.hīr kī
maiñ to miTTī ho rahā thā ishq meñ lekin 'atā'
aa ga.ī mujh meñ kahīñ se be-dimāġhī 'mīr' kī
main na hone se hua yani baDi taqsir ki
kimiya-gar ne meri miTi magar iksir ki
un dinon aaya tha tu jab hausla darkar tha
KHair ho teri ki tu ne tirgi tanwir ki
aur socha aur socha aur socha aur phir
us KHuda-e-lam-yazal ne aur hi taqdir ki
aashiqan suniye ba-gosh-e-hosh meri dastan
dastan kuchh bhi nahin yaron ne bas tashhir ki
main to miTTi ho raha tha ishq mein lekin 'ata'
aa gai mujh mein kahin se be-dimaghi 'mir' ki
